SUMMARY:John Illsley – The Life And Times Of Dire Straits
DESCRIPTION:An evening with John Illsley about the Life and Times of Dire Straits – “A concert of Music & Memories”.\nAlong with Mark Knopfler, bass player John was a founder member of the legendary band DIRE STRAITS who, during their time together, sold over 120 million albums.\nThe evening will feature classics from the Dire Straits catalogue and include a Q & A with a/v led by Paul Cummins {ex-Dire Straits management}. Paul will be asking questions, during which John will reveal the story and development of the band from its humble beginnings in a council flat in South London, where songs like Sultans of Swing and Wild West End were created, to playing all over the world to millions of fans, making albums in London, New York, Montserrat and Nassau; performing and and working with some of the world’s most influential and creative musicians and producers.\n“Having Mark Knopfler as songwriter, singer and guitar player in the band gave Dire Straits it’s unique character. It was a pleasure for me to be able to contribute to the distinctive sound of the band, and enjoy the friendship and musical journey that Mark and I shared.”\nJohn will also be joined on stage by fellow musicians from John’s band who will play music from the whole DS catalogue including, Money for Nothing, Brothers in Arms, Romeo and Juliet and Sultans of Swing.\n
